"Charles,

Here is the recommendation we posted on the Trulia site.


When we decided to sell our home in Brooklyn, our selection of a broker was influenced by a former neighbor whose home had been sold by Charles D’Alessandro of Fillmore Realty. The neighbor gave Mr. D’Alessandro an outstanding endorsement. Based on this recommendation we selected Mr. D’Alessandro as our broker.

In our own dealings with Charles D’Alessandro, we have been impressed with his personal attention, honesty and integrity. He has been with us every step of the process. He has handled all matters regarding the marketing and showing of our home with diligence and professionalism. He has been available at all times to respond to our concerns and questions.

In this age of the sound bite, it has been most refreshing to deal with a professional who gives his undivided attention to the needs of his client.

We would highly recommend Charles D’Alessandro to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.



Wishing you and your family a happy and safe holiday,

Lois and Michael Colin

"Dear Charles,
We would like to thank you for the great job you did selling my aunt's home in Brooklyn.It could have been a real challenge living in Maryland and trying to sell the house in Brooklyn. But you made it all easy for us. You where always responsive to our calls and email requests in a timely manner. You checked on the house after unexpected Hurricane Sandy to assure us everything was all right with the house. When things became contentious with perspective buyers, you maintained your cool and professionalism. You always followed through on our requests. Please feel free to use us as a reference in the future.We couldn't be happier with you as our Realtor.

Sincerely,

Bob & Ginger Fitzpatrick

Dear Fillmore


RE: Charles D?Alessandro

As you probably are aware, real estate agents sometimes do not always have the best of reputations. I was skeptical about Realtors?. I was afraid that in this present realty market, I would get burned. But, then again, good news and good people are not always well advertised.

Well, I must tell my story of good news and a really good person. Meet Charles D?Alessandro, Fillmore real Estate, Avenue J in Brooklyn, N.Y.

Around November of 2010, I called Charles about selling my home of 27 years. It was a very difficult decision and scary. I am 60 years young and I wanted to downsize. My Dad had passed about 6 months prior, and I was grieving and scared. However, I knew it was time to sell the house and move on. When I spoke to Charles I felt like I was speaking to an old friend! We spoke about our Dads? and our children. We had quite a lot in common and I immediately felt at ease with him.

I interviewed a few more Realtors? from different agencies, but I did not feel that connection and trust t hat I felt with Mr. D?Alessandro. My decision was made. My house was put on the market and I put my trust in Charles. It was quite an emotional roller coaster for me, but I survived it all. Charles was available day and night to answer any questions (and I had many), calm any fears, and listen to all my rants and raves. He went over and beyond what I ever expected from a realtor. I needed an attorney; Mr. D'Alessandro was able to assist me with getting an attorney. When I needed tax advice, Mr. D'Alessandro called an accountant, when I needed to get a tenant out of my garage; Charles was able to assist me, along with coping with my hysteria. When I needed information or had a question, Charles always had an answer. If he didn?t know the answer, he made it his business to get an answer.

Mr. D?Alessandro handled all dealings with potential buyers with utmost professionalism, and also with a genuine sense of human kindness. Potential buyers liked and respected him. However, he was no pushover; he acted accordingly with clients who were playing games. I wanted to be involved in all aspects of the sale of my house. Mr. D?Alessandro never objected to my participation and encouraged me to do so.

In the end, I was very lucky in all respects. Mr. D?Alessandro found me wonderful buyers. They were truly interested in my house and no games were played. I had a wonderful realtor representing me. I have to say Charles D?Alessandro was my chief advisor, guardian angel, and professional all wrapped into one wonderful person. Thank you Mr. D?Alessandro.

I must commend Fillmore Real Estate on having such a fine agent represent your company .Mr. D?Alessandro is a real professional and certainly an asset to your company and you should be proud he is on your team.

Sincerely,

Debra DeLucia

"I hired Charles to assist my parents in the sale of a property they inherited in Brooklyn. I am in the real estate industry in Boston and wanted to make sure that my parents were being treated professionally. I also wanted a person in New York I could trust and rely on for advice. Charles was that person and delivered for us whenever we needed him. The transaction being an estate sale required advanced knowledge of real estate and the ability to guide all parties in the transaction with patience and advice throughout an extended sale process. My parents and I were very pleased with Charles D'Alessandro's service and he made a difficult situation (death of homeowner/property condition/market conditions in 2010) easier and pretty much stress free. In the future if I or any of my friends or family have real estate business in Brooklyn I would call Charles and consider myself lucky to have him as a great real estate connection. Charles got the job done for my parents when we needed him the most! Thank you Charles. When you come up to Boston ( Title Town ) I will take you to Fenway Park, buy you a Sam Adams and show you how baseball is meant to be played! It's the least I can do!!? February 10, 2011

"I would like to give Charles D'Alessandro and his son (Charles Jr.) my most heartfelt endorsement as excellent Brooklyn-based realtors...whom I am so glad to have worked with! I first met Charles Sr. when my wife and I came upon an open house in the Kensington area ? though we hadn?t met before he was welcoming, warm, direct and unassuming. We immediately liked his earthy, sincere demeanor and opted to have him show us more homes. In a short time he and Charles Jr. came to understand what we were looking for, which was quite specific as regards location, cost and style. Being on a budget, we enjoyed their confidence that they would indeed find the house for us??and, if it wasn?t for their consistently grounded approach I?m not sure we would have believed them!

With patience and insight Charles senior (with the help of his son) did indeed find the right home for us, at which point round 2 began. We were energetically assisted in bargaining for a price that we could manage (which seemed to us as something of a miracle) and we were generously assisted all the way down the road to the closing. Our insurance agent came as a recommendation from the D'Alessandro?s and our roofer as well (by the way, the cost of the roof?s repair was happily taken off of our purchase price).

All in all, these guys are great! My wife ?just knew? that they were the guys to run with??and she was absolutely right! They?re real, honorable, kind, people...with no B.S.??and many years of most valuable experience in the business and the borough. A big thumbs up.

"Dear Charles,

I want to let you know what a pleasure it was working with you on the sale of my building. You are a rare individual, you helped me with whatever it took from beginning to end. You always followed up on anything I needed from you, and you were extremely conscientious. Whenever it got somewhat stressful you always got me through the rough points. I mentioned to friends that dealing with you restored my faith in mankind.

Always grateful,

To whom it may concern,

We would like to thank Charles D?Alessandro of Fillmore Real Estate for the excellent job he did when we sold my mother-in laws house 384 East 3rd Street.

It was not the best time to sell and not an easy house to sell. We appreciate the time and effort Charles D?Alessandro made. We always felt you did what was best for us.

You kept us informed at all times, always returned our calls and encouraged us not to get discouraged. We will definitely recommend you to anyone we know and hope to use your services in the future.


Thank You

"When the time had come for my brother and me to sell our home in Brooklyn, we didn't know where to start. Charles D'Alessandro made everything easy.

Only hours after we contacted him, he met with us to evaluate our house. His understanding of the local market was on target, and he certainly did his homework: by tracking down recent sales of comparable properties, Charles helped us to determine the right price. In very little time he was able to attract several interested buyers.

Throughout the process,Charles made himself available to us, to address any concerns. I'm glad we found him, and I?d heartily recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in Brooklyn.

Sincerely,

David Koral "

It was a pleasure to meet someone like yourself, you are a throwback ,from the "old school" and have unique values and morals. I knew your father, in law, Carmine back in 70's when I was about 17 years old. We all loved him to death and he was always there for all of his players. He was always our emotional leader.

Thanks again ,

""Dear Mr. Reinhardt,
I walked into your Avenue J & Nostrand Avenue facility to register my house (1082 East 26th Street Brooklyn N.Y. 11210)for sale.I had the greatest trepidation,not knowing anything about you.I had the greatest fortune to become connected with Charles D'Alessandro.His warmth and friendliness,and sincerity gradually put me at ease.
From that moment on he was only a phone call away to answer questions of concerns,of which there were many.He was.He was like a good friend,who took me in hand,and led me unnervingly to the final closing.He called me,whenever he felt I was apprehensive,and made the entire process as painless as possible.
Again,I say,the connection was a stroke of luck.Charles is very capable,but is a caring,feeling,individual,who made my fearful ordeal as pleasant as possible.Knowing him,I'm sure all his clients are treated with the TLC that I received.

Sincerely,

"Dear Mr. Reinhardt,
I would like to take a moment and write you about Charles D'Alessandro. When we set out to sell our home in Marine Park/Brooklyn, we were a bit nervous...and then we called Charles. From the moment we sat down with him we had all the confidence in the world that we would be taken care of with great attention to detail. Charles immediately put our nerves at ease.
Charles is a highly motivated, energetic individual with a genuine compassion for people. He has knowledge and enthusiasm for such a wide variety of subjects that the words ?extremely remarkable? seem insufficient to describe his dynamic abilities. We were fortunate enough to have him as our Realtor.
In short, Charles D'Alessandro's magnificent character, personality, intellectual and communicative abilities are outstanding. He is the type of individual that any profession would be proud to have as a member. I most heartily recommend him to anyone who is setting out to purchase or sell a home in Brooklyn.

Thank you for your time,

Robert Sala & Ann Sullivan "

"Dear Mr. Reinhardt,
Last year my mother passed away and Charles D'Alessandro was responsible for the expeditious sale of her house at a price that is consistent with property values in this neighborhood. In addition to Charles's exemplary handling of a painful situation, he exhibited a demeanor that was more that of a friend than a business contact.

If ever my family, friends or myself are in need of real estate sales or purchase assistance, Charles and Fillmore real estate will be our recommendation.

Respectfully,

"Dear Charles,
Jerry & I want to thank you for helping us sell our house. We're so glad our New Jersey real estate agent recommended you. The first thing that impressed us about you was that you explained right from the start everything that you'd do to help us sell the house & without any pressure. You were always available when we needed you. You always made sure we knew who was coming to see the house and when. Even after selling the house, you made sure all was going well. I'm amazed that we sold the house in the first week & to someone who came on the first day. In this day and age, it's nice to know that there are people that really care about their clients. These words really can't express just how thankful we are for all you've done for us.

Sincerely,

Beth Katz
"Seven years ago I enlisted Charles D'Alessandro in finding my first new home. As a nervous first time buyer I was relieved to find that I had put my trust in a very professional and understanding real estate agent. Charles found the perfect home at a price I could afford. He made himself available at a moments notice and always answered my frequent calls. Seven years later I found myself in the position of having to sell my house. I couldn't think of anyone else I trusted more to help me. Charles eased many of my concerns about selling a house. He made it simple and stress free. He got me more money than I ever thought I'd get for my house. In no time at all I was sitting at the closing knowing it was Charles who helped make it possible. I have since recommended Charles to several friends who were buying and selling homes. If I ever deal in the real estate market again, Charles would be my first call.
